Introduction:

In need of a stunning product category list for your Divi-powered WooCommerce store – without coding or shortcodes? You’re not alone.

However, since Divi does not come with a native product category list module for WooCommerce, it leads store owners to find third-party plugin options that do not work well with the Divi Builder.

The good news is WooExpand fills this gap perfectly.With the WooExpand Product Category List Module, you can visually create and customize elegant category lists directly inside the Divi Builder. Perfect for sidebars, homepages, and category-focused landing pages.

Why Use a Category List in your Divi Store?

The Product Category List Module is part of WooExpand’s Divi WooCommerce toolkit. You can display category images, titles, product counts, and even custom hover effects — all styled directly in the Divi Visual Builder.

   Key Features

• Fully responsive list layout
• Dynamic category data (image, title, product count)
• Divi Visual Builder integration
• Custom hover, overlay, and border controls
• Works seamlessly with other WooExpand modules

How to Use a Category List in Divi

• Enter your Licence Key & enable modules.

Step 2 – Activate the Category List Module

To ensure proper display of your product categories:

• Add an image, name, description, and slug from your WordPress Dashboard under Products > Categories.

Step 4: Configure Your List

Select Product Source: WooExpand has a total of 6 child elements for the Category list module. You can select any of your preference elements from here.

• Order By: The Order By choice is how you want the categories to be sorted in the list.. You can select name, count, or slug to sort categories.
• Order: Allows you to specify if the categories should be sorted in ascending or descending order.
